The Wi-Fi-only version of the higher capacity iPad will cost $799 while the LTE-capable version will go for $929. As usual, you'll be able to choose a white or black model.

It's worth pointing out that, at $929, the LTE-capable 128GB iPad costs you nearly as much a base MacBook Air model. Alternatively, you could grab an iPad Min, which starts at $329 or three for the same price.

According to Apple, "Mind you, neither of those devices will have a high-resolution Retina Display like the fourth-generation iPad".

The Cupertino, Calif.-based Company is clearly hoping that these buyers will pay this stratospheric premium for the extra storage, it remains to be seen whether people will actually pay the price of a decent notebook for a tablet running iOS.
